Forecasts

Graces Quest (6/4), Tele Red (5/2), Royal Countess (4/1), Iolani (17/2), Ooh La Lah (10/1), Marcello Si (25/1)

ROYAL COUNTESS was a winner from this mark last season and has run close to her best on her last 2 outings, so can regain the winning thread. Graces Quest has been solid this season and can give another good account, whilst Iolani has a fine C&D record.
